$A$ $1\,kg$ mass is attached to a spring of force constant $600\,N/m$ and rests on a smooth horizontal surface with the other end of the spring tied to a wall as shown in the figure. $A$ second mass of $0.5\,kg$ slides along the surface towards the first at $3\,m/s$. If the masses make a perfectly inelastic collision,find the amplitude and time period of oscillation of the combined mass.

Two particles $P$ and $Q$ describe simple harmonic motions of same period,same amplitude,along the same line about the same equilibrium position $O.$ When $P$ and $Q$ are on opposite sides of $O$ at the same distance from $O,$ they have the same speed of $1.2 \, m/s$ in the same direction. When their displacements are the same,they have the same speed of $1.6 \, m/s$ in opposite directions. The maximum velocity in $m/s$ of either particle is

$A$ system is oscillating with undamped simple harmonic motion. Then the

Phase space diagrams are useful tools in analyzing all kinds of dynamical problems. They are especially useful in studying the changes in motion as initial position and momentum are changed. Here we consider some simple dynamical systems in one-dimension. For such systems, phase space is a plane in which position is plotted along the horizontal axis and momentum is plotted along the vertical axis. The phase space diagram is the $x(t)$ vs. $p(t)$ curve in this plane. The arrow on the curve indicates the time flow. For example, the phase space diagram for a particle moving with constant velocity is a straight line as shown in the figure. We use the sign convention in which position or momentum upwards (or to the right) is positive and downwards (or to the left) is negative.
